Step Away From The Keyboard

I should be writing about this on my health and fitness blog, but it has a good place on a writer's blog too. We do so many things during the day to promote our professional lives we often forget about our actual lives.

STEP AWAY FROM THE KEYBOARD.

I need to paste that in big bold letters at the top of my 19" flat screen (snicker, yeah I'm still happy to be out of the 'big box' age). It's true though, I need to remind myself constantly--get up, move, jump around... eat. Yes, eat. I can't even count the number of times I've minimized the word program and looked at the clock to see it was almost time for bed, and I've missed dinner completely. (Forget about lunch, I always miss that.)

The thing is, what happens when you starve yourself? You reach for junk. Okay, maybe you don't, but I sure do. Not good, not good. Which brings me to my point. There are great products out there to detoxify your body. Orovo detox makes a great product to help get rid of the toxins that build up from ... drinking too much coffee (whistles and looks around like I can't possibly be talking about myself, eating too much junk (I'm not going to even bother denying that, I just told you I did), or even just the every day normal stuff that while good for you, can still build up in your system.

Whatever you do to maintain your health, and well-being while working endless hours behind a glaring computer screen, make one thing your mantra:

STEP AWAY FROM THE KEYBOARD

at least several times a day.
